They're still in business? I amazed. Haven't heard from or about them for a decade.

I join when I'm going to buy a treestand and then let it lapse. I run quite a bit of business through them. Mostly it's Mil surplus stuff like balaclavas and hats and that sort of thing, but we've probably bought a dozen or more work coats, poly-pro jackets and turkey hunting duds from them. Some stuff rocks. Some stuff reeks, but it's mostly good quality and good prices if you wait for a deal.

Not a member and I'm a little mad at them , ordered a lightweight rain jacket , too small , called customer service to see what the quickest way to exchange it was . Guy made it sound like - when I send them a tracking number of the return - they'd get the larger size coming my way . New jacket still not mailed after 6 days .

I have been for 30 years or so. Don’t order much anymore as I have stuff.
About to refer coveralls and a couple other things. Got my best shooting barrel for 98 from them for about $100. Inch groups at 300 ain’t too shabby.

I used to live nearby their "World Headquarters" in St. Paul. Used to go in there every once in a while. Got some ok deals on mil surp ammo, and a couple rifle stocks, but little more. They do have a ton of milsurp clothes, gadgets,and gizmos in there as well as lots of cheap imported knock off crap.

Not all imported "stuff". I ordered some Magpul items from them last month that were out of stock at many many places. I wondered if they really had them, or how the hell long it would take to get the order.
48 hours later It was at my door. I'll use 'em again if I have the need.

I bought a couple of good things there, but expect to spend a LOT of time to get it right. I think its policy for the fulfillment department to insert the used moth eaten junk with a new one if you buy 2 unissued new wool surplus for instance. Communication since the covid tyranny has been slow.

I found a good deal on a rifle a few years ago and about broke even with the members discount and a one year membership. For the most part especially on low cost items there overpriced and there are better deals. By today’s standards there shipping isn’t as fast as most places selling the same item for less.

Weren't folks boycotting them a while back over them raising prices on ammo during a shortage or something?

After I got divorced back in late 87, I went on board with them as a lowly customer service rep, part time, just to fill my abundance of spare time..... I lasted there three days.... probably one of the worst ran companies, I've ever encountered....
customer service was mainly 19 to 22 year olds, more women than guys...most knew nothing about the type of stuff the company sold, and were clueless on customer service or the products... and the department was ran by a bunch of overweight women dykes in their 50s....
